Nice
Divorcing after 23 years of marriage...due to spouse's rampant infidelity. I'm facing growing old alone. I'm hopeless. Every day is filled with physical and mental anguish. I wasted the best years of my life and now no one wants me. I'm becoming bitter. I find pleasure in nothing now. I attempted suicide in March of this year. My survival destroyed me. 53, male, nerd.
Hello everyone
@comfortablePudding6633 Hello! How are you doing?
Hello! Welcome to 7cups! Happy to have you here!
POTENTIAL TRIGGER WARNING: Looking for professional female on webchat who understands role overthinking can play on making anxiety from flashbacks caused by sexual violence worse. Where has autism community from here disappeared to?
overthinking from Asp's (which I have), it's me who has Asp's and has been sexually violated.
@StressedGirl Autism has not had its own community yet. It's currently a topic in the Support Plus community
@AffyAvo There is a community because I used to post stuff to it, then it completely disappeared?
@StressedGirl When we had forums not part of subcommunities it used to be it's own forum section. Those threads were moved to the Support Plus community. We haven't had an autism community yet.
Welcome
Hey
Thank you goes to so many listeners for sending me personal welcome messages. You guys are amazing! I came with a heart with no thoughts to receive but only to give. So the unexpected kindness was like a cooling drizzle on a hot day.
Thank you!
@electricPeace6276 This is such a sweet message. I'm so glad you received a warm welcome from the listeners. We're glad to have you here. Have a wonderful day!
I’m glad you feel welcomed. I like how you described the kindness you received.
Hi fellow Cuppers…
I’m here to find support for dealing with a husband who is an anxious attachment type and drives me crazy trying to manage my time and focus so that HE is the center of it all. I can’t pick up my phone without him commenting or asking “who are you talking to.” (I’m an Introvert. You really think I spend my day chit-chatting with people? Even by text?) He is VERY difficult to deal with but seems to think he is a wonderful husband (sometimes he is!) and I’m unreasonable.
I also have a stressful healthcare job (on call 24/7, sometimes Life or death situations) and my aging mother has recently moved in with us (she isn’t any trouble, just needs physical help sometimes).
It is hard for me to organize my thoughts and feelings about all of this and I think maybe some feedback and guidance from others might be helpful in this process.
i don’t know Hope much time I will be able to spend here, but it seems like a helpful community. Perhaps I’ll make some new friends. 🙂
